Description

The Bank vault contains ten-million dollars. In this fast-paced game of inductive logic, one player takes on the role of the Bank, secretly creating a rule using cards that feature colours, binary numbers, and characters like Alice, Bob, and Eve.

The remaining players are Hackers, tasked with breaking into the system.

Instead of taking turns, all Hackers act at the exact same time! You will frantically grab cards from the center of the table to build your own codes, knocking on the table to test them against the Bank. The Bank will quickly tell you if your code works, based on their secret rule.

Use your wits and reflexes to break the Bank’s secret first and steal the prize!

Once you think you have deciphered the pattern, flip your Hack card to make an official guess. If the Bank cannot disprove your code, you win!

Play competitively to claim the cash before your competitors, or use the included variant rules to team up and hack the Bank together before a 10-minute timer runs out.
